Will you be allowing donating parts of your body when you die to

Write "Ping: T" in the subject line next time. I almost
did not see this.

No, I don't trust Allopaths not to make sure I
am dead first as there is too much conflict of interest
(money) involved. And, I don't trust Allopaths as far
as I can spit, especially after the garbage they
foist on my after the Diabetes. I few I do. Most
I do not.

And it has nothing to do with religion, in case that
is why you are asking.

I rest my case, M,lord.

They can have any part of me when I'm dead if it can help extend
someones life or alleviate their pain.

It is the "I'm dead" thing I have a problem with. If
I could be assured of that, then we would be on the
same page as you.

That's highly irrational to think that they'd take your organs whilst
you're alive.

Not really. They are slime ball in the extreme.

And it this state they keep treating you after you are dead. It
is a YUGE problem. You have to show up with not one but two
copies of Do Not Resuscitate papers to get them to stop.
Of course, they keep billing you, which is the point.

Coroners have stated they see dead folks all the time
that were clearly dead when they were being treated.


That doesn't happen in the UK.

I hope not. But, don't be so sure.

You forget I listen to your news. There is another scandal
this week on how you treat your elderly. And lets not
forget that little baby you won't let come to the US
for treatment.

Everyone in that hospital should be jailed for attempted murder. ONLY the parents and nobody else on the face of this planet has the right to say what happens to that baby.


So, only parents can decide what treatment to allow or withhold?
Parents can choose to allow a baby to die, instead of be treated
for an easily curable disease? Or in this case, perform an experiment
on a suffering, terminal child, that no one says will lead to a recovery,
to any quality life, at most the child will be a vegetable.

Of course. The baby is theirs. Until it's old enough to make it's own decisions, those decisions must be made by the parents. Nobody has the right to interfere with someone else's child.

And in this case there are two simple options:
1) Death.
2) Small chance of life.
2 is obviously the correct choice for anyone with at least half a brain.
